Electrics issue
As our cars have loads of what are now old electrics, does anyone think it would be sensible to have a specific 'Electrical' section?
I was trying to find some details relating to a post I made(& by others) relating to changing over SI board batteries, but I can't find it. It was only looking in the obvious 'Interior' that I realised it wasn't there......., so I looked in 'Saloon' - nope, not there either...!
A dedicated 'Electrics' section would get my thumbs up - anybody else?

Agreed, just been dealing with faulty sensors & still have some "check light" wierdness to understand.UKDaveJ wrote: A dedicated 'Electrics' section would get my thumbs up - anybody else?
Oh and with some luck I might be able to help, I do work on embedded software for a living, must go find the databooks for the RCA chip in the early motronic systems...

Re: Electrics issue
It will be nice. I plan to work on SI-board myself, my temp. gauge is dead and economizer started to act... Got junkyard SIboard to play with for begining.UKDaveJ wrote: As our cars have loads of what are now old electrics, does anyone think it would be sensible to have a specific 'Electrical' section?

The most complete info I found how to disassemble the board is here: http://www.bmwe34.net/E28/Repairs/Dashboard.htm but I will not put the batteries in the original place, but solder remote battery holdr and attach it under steering wheel somewhere for easy access.
Re: Troubleshooting Guide
Yes, but that's for a US-spec car.....
SI Board replacement
Val, there is also this site for really good pics and explanation of removing the instrument cluster: http://www.z3bimmer.com/OffTopic/E24Bimmer///OdoGear/
